Brembo Gran Turismo BBK utilizing 13" two-piece rotors. 12.65 lb just like Black birdVQ said.

Are those rotors drilled by Brembo too? That's the most holes I've seen on a Maxima.
Jae

Well, yes and no. The holes aren't drilled after the rotor is produced, they are part of the mold Brembo uses and cured in place.

does drill = mold?

Jae

mold? i dont think mold could survive in that kinda temp, one brake would burn anything close to that...

which is the ONLY acceptable way to do it.

Drilling a blank just weakens the structure. Casting it with the holes does not.

i'm confused what "cross drilled" refers to. Why does brembo's website say the holes are drilled? Are they drilled or casted?
Jae

They're cast, but "cross drilled" sounds cooler than "cast with holes in them."

i have a 4th gen maxima im thinking about doing a bbk with the works and all...W hat would be the best way to go as far as choosing the company thats sells the kits...I know that Brembro does not make them for the 4th gen anymore.... What can i do i really wanted them but hey thats life....What to do fellas can some one help me out

thx

Actually, IIRC Brembo doesn't cast any of its 1-piece rotors with holes - only the 2-piece (more expensive) rotors.

When you buy standard Brembo rotors with holes, they have been DRILLED after the fact, not cast that way.

Hey Wizard,
How do you like the kit ? I just had my 1st track event with them and I think I will dump the Brembo pads for some Hawks. The floating rotor design takes getting used to when braking on the track, initially it feels like the rotors are warped under light braking when the brakes are HOT... but when you hit them harder they just stop the car like crazy.

I would also like to thank you for posting pictures of 17" wheels over them. I am going to pick up some 17" track wheels so I can run my Hoosiers on them, and I wasn't sure if they where going to clear the calipers.

I need to upgrade the rear brakes now, they actually get really hot on the track and stink a bit. HPS on stock rotors.

been waiting a long time to get this done right; blehmco bracket, 13" baer rotors, 300zx calipers under 17" ssr's.

MAXSE2KMT, can you pm me the price for the 13" baer rotor and where do you get it from? I am looking for a set also, thanks.

if you're using the 13 inch rotors those wouldn't be the blehmco bracket.. they would be the jeff92se brackets

got an idea here..

i guess i can add as well

87 maxima se
q45 dual piston calipers
q45 cross drille drotors
vg30et motor

Well got mine put on now...got bored at work 1 day :P

300-Z Calipers/rotors milled 4mm in diameter everything else stock for now no mods had to be done to get them to fit everything bolted right up,hopefully have stainless lines soon!

My A33 ( de-modded)







A34 Current





I upgrade z33 Rear Calipers on the A34

don't recall if I ever posted pics...

Wilwood superlites + Blehm/coleman 2pc rotors (under my winter wheels in this pic)

My new setup Stillen/PBR setup, Custom Coleman racing 2pc rotors.

I'm selling my Brembo kit if anyone is interested.....

damn ....messed up the upload

I got you covered.

Thanks for the backup Newfound...here`s what I actually wanted to post.

92 Max SE ... cobra rotors,Q45 calipers,Maxxim Oxygene rims... Close fit huh ?

aww man ..... did it again !?!?!... anyone know how I can post a pic from photobucket ? ..=\

You missed a bracket before "IMG] is all:

Is the Brembo kit the lightest rotor and caliper set up? Mike Jez Brembo kit came in at 37 pounds. Anyone have the total weights of their set up?

thanks for the help puppet

my z31 rears.

Although not a maxima, I thought it would be appreciated:





Too bad this setup isn't available for a maxima. I know I would have bought one for mine if I still had it.

Damn, this thread is **** to me.

Maxima or Z32 torque members (caliper bracket)?

300z bbk on an altima

very clean on the altima. I just bolted up some G35 Coupe wheels. Feels great to have tons of clearance between the inner barrel of the wheel and caliper now compared to the crappy 17s I had.

Nice. What parts are used on that?

matt's stuff..


SE-R brakes are the same as an +04 maxima... so the rotors are stock..

HEY GUYS ?!?!?!.... I made a nice discovery for those w/ 3/4th gen maxima`s who want brembos. Using SER Spec V Brembos will bolt up. All u have to do is drill the rotors to 5 lug and they bolt right up. For a mock up on my friends B15 sentra, I used 3rd. gen Max rotors w/Maxima calipers. We found out the dimensions from the FSM that the 2k Sentra SE ( w/sr20de) are the same size rotors and same calipers as 3/4th Maxima`s. Being that the B15 Spindle is the same on the SE-Spec V, The Calipers are the direct bolt on w/ the rotors drilled. I`m searching for Brembo calipers from a Spec V to d the test fit on my 3rd gen.
